My Old Ghosts Lyrics by The Wooden Sky
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Horses by my window go
When you're fast asleep far below
And I hope that you never know
That while you sleep I still find time for my old ghosts

See I was born just yesterday
And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
You know it's hard to find a friend
But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again
When it's slow I think I'd rather die
Then pass this off on some unsuspecting child

Angie came to me today
And said she was born to lead but not to say
That she knows there's no hope
Of making good on all those promises that she wrote
Surely there's been some mistake
Some blind omission or a spot for change but no
You know it's hard to find a friend
But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again
When I'm low I still look to ghosts
To keep a cool eye on the hand that holds my throat

See I was born just yesterday
And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
Horses by my window go   When you're fast asleep far below   And I hope that you never know   That while you sleep I still find time for my old ghosts      See I was born just yesterday   And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't   You know it's hard to find a friend   But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again   When it's slow I think I'd rather die   Then pass this off on some unsuspecting child      Angie came to me today   And said she was born to lead but not to say   That she knows there's no hope    Of making good on all those promises that she wrote   Surely there's been some mistake   Some blind omission or a spot for change but no   You know it's hard to find a friend   But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again   When I'm low I still look to ghosts   To keep a cool eye on the hand that holds my throat      See I was born just yesterday   And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
